Important: You don't need to be on a large group to enjoy this beauty. You can come in pair or even fly solo. Just remember to notify the local tourism office at least two days in advance so they can book your reservations. Walk-ins are allowed but not advisable. You'll be stuck on the wait list until all those who have made their reservations are accommodated. Though the locals would be kind enough to find you a way to be accommodated (just like they did for us) it would be wise to contact them at least 2 days prior your visit so they can: - advise if the weather is good - schedule the window of your trip - prepare your lunch - even take you to Hermit's Cove - additional perks is the welcome presentation they will prepare for you upon your arrival! Not to mention the welcome lei you can keep for souvenir! Walk-ins don't get you this much perks, as was our case, but the people there are all friendly and accommodating. They even looked for any available fisherman who can accommodate us despite full schedule. The local fisherman will serve as your guide and boatman for the entire tour. The tour will span for 45 minutes, paddling through the entire river up until you come to the very mouth of the river where it meets with the blue sea. A picture-perfect beauty comparable to El Nido in Palawan awaits. The local fisherman are also very friendly and knowledgeable. A tale of a mysterious sea fairy, the history of Bojo River, the importance of eco-tourism, and the enumeration of several species of flora (with their scientific names) are only a sample of knowledge you can get from them. At the mouth of the river, where the sea and the river meets, you can take a dip and swim into the waters. Beautiful corals abounds the area for you to see.

Bojo River Cruise is probably one of the activities that you should not miss while you're in Cebu. The staff and were super friendly and helpful while at the same time, very knowledgeable about the different types of birds and mangroves that you'll see along the way. At the point where the river and the ocean meet, the water is very clear that you can actually see corals as well as a lot of different kinds of fishes. It's a shame that we missed the time when a school of sardines was spotted there. Overall, the Bojo River Cruise experience is something that you won't forget any time soon. Plus, you get to help the local community as the activity serves as their livelihood as well.

- Coming here contributes to the local community of Bojo. - The tour guide introduced us to all the mangrove species found along the river, and boy there were a lot of them! - At the end of the river is an estuary where the the rivet meets the sea and it was such a lovely sight! - We got the chance to bathe in the cold brackish water when we reached the estuary. Note: Don't forget to apply sunblock! 😁 Happy cruising!

Accommodating staff, I love their foods 🥰🥰 and mo's especially the Bojo River itself. You can enjoy on swimming and Coral watching.

The place is so special and magnificent. I should say good job to the local preserving the area. For the local government for the initiative as it gives the people of Aloguinsan a much more stable income. The place was well kept, the guides are very knowledgeable.

They said 1 and half hour trip, 300 pp + 300 for boat. 30 minutes one way, 30 minutes swimming was a big lie. 10 minutes one way in real. It's nice river but very short and expensive trip.

It’s a relaxing 40 min cruise from the river to the ocean & back however you may opt to swim with the sardines and admire the corals for a while in the ocean. Don’t forget to order your lunch before the cruise and have a positive attitude.

The place is magical. I would def come back. I love how education and relaxing this river is. Kudos to all local tour guides. You should definitely visit too!

booked a tour and it was fantastic, our family had fun! Their glass boat upgrade is a must have! You'll get to enjoy viewing the coral and fish. They're also pet friendly! They allowed our dog along the glass boat

Guides were trained and well informed. They have genuine concern for the preservation of nature. A few tourists go there as its a rather long drive. I loved my quick some to see the marvelous coral reefs at the end of the river which opened up to the seas. It was really a wow!

A slow-paced relaxing short day tour great for families and people looking for a quiet day in the river. Best time to go during the week to avoid the crowd. A wonderful sustainable local tourism, great in supporting this environment. Bring your swimming clothes. 400/head for the local small boat, +300 for the glass buttom boats (recommended). They have clean washrooms, tables, and excellent local staff.

This place is just magical. You can definitely feel shy to scream as it is a peaceful place. Deep clear waters to swim in and plenty of greens to relax your tired eyes. You can appreciate nature's beauty.

If you want that authentic, local-run tourist place, Bojo River Cruise is one of the best places to visit in Cebu! The best in local tourism. Our group arrived around 9 A. M. and get indulged when the local staff served a native Filipino breakfast, baked sweet potato with a local cocoa drink called sikwate. We had a filling lunch at the base of Bojo river's cruise. They serve local foods. For me, the best food was the ampalaya/bitter gourd salad. The guides will teach you how to make poso/hanging-rice. The place is clean and organized, which makes you appreciate the Bojo river's wonderful nature. Did you know bojo is a Spanish word for trading? All this time. I thought "Bojo" originated from the Bisaya word for hole.

They manage the place well. Wasn’t expecting too much, and was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the staff and the overall experience.

Kudos to the local organisation for looking after the mangroves. It was a quick river boat trip in the middle of the mangrove forest. I was a bit disappointed as I expected it to be a long one like in Loboc river in Bohol. They could add more activities to make it more exciting.

Very nice place. Very nice and hospitable people. Feeds you a lot. We only did the river cruise in a boat that has a glass bottom. Lots of corals and fish. Overall it was a beautiful experience.
